“Harvard can no longer hide behind the $328-million figure,” said Lambda secretary Holly S. Lewis, referring to the sum of federal funds that Harvard would have jeopardized if it had violated the Pentagon’s regulations in 2002.
Lewis said that if the University stays on the sidelines in the wake of Lifland’s ruling, “it is because Summers supported the military over the value of nondiscrimination.”
Former Dean of the College Harry R. Lewis ’68 refused to give serious consideration to the issue during his eight-year tenure because he felt the Houses should act as the primary social space for undergraduates.
The change in the College administration is largely responsible for the new tentative initiative to build a student center. Lewis, who was bumped from his post as dean of the College last year, staunchly opposed creating such a building.
Lewis long argued that the Houses should act as the centers of student life and that a student center outside the Houses would be detrimental to residential life.
